YOUR PRIVATE COOK

In a small community like San Felipe it is well known who are the best cooks. For a daily fee we can arrange for a private cook to come to the house you rent and prepare your meals so that you and your family can relax, or even better, learn how to cook traditional yucatecan food. A list of meals and description of the meals will be provided in advanced and you can pick what you want the cook to prepare for you for your three meals of the day. The cooks are local ladies that are well known for their cooking skills. They do not speak any english, so you will have to practice your spanish and embrace the fun that comes with total cultural immersion.
